In 1984, a young Grand Canyon river guide revolutionized the footwear industry when he created the world's first sports sandal. This idea soon spawned a brand, and the new adventure of Teva was born. It's been 25 years since Teva took its first step into the Grand Canyon, and not a moment has gone by that Teva (that's "teh'-vah," not "tee-vah") hasn't been hard at work developing products that enable and encourage your adventure. Of course, given Teva's heritage, they have an obsession with water, and a passion lies in identifying and enhancing the areas in which water affects an adventure. To Teva, water presents a paradox. It is the source of a year-round problem. Anyone who has ever slipped on a patch of ice or been forced to deal with soaking wet socks can attest to this duality. Essentially, Teva has two fundamental responsibilities: to play and to protect. We play in the water, but we also see the need to be protected from it. Teva's responsibility is to manage this delicate balance, so you can go forth without reservation. Armed with a quarter-century worth of knowledge and technology, Teva is dedicated to developing products that strike this balance to deliver the most out of your adventures.

Teva, the brainchild of a Grand Canyon river guide in the 1980's, was created out of necessity. After he recognized the need for an athletic sandal, he laid the foundation for Teva, now a go to brand for many outdoorsmen and women. Teva uses the latest technology to produce footwear that has compelling outdoor benefits, such as no slip grip for winter conditions and sweat protection for warmer weather.

When preparing for an outdoor adventure, there are many decisions and preparations to consider. Choosing the optimal shoes and sandals to wear should be an easy one. Great outdoor gear, including outdoor shoes, can increase fun, comfort, and performance and decrease injuries, such as bothersome blisters and severe foot pains. With Tevas on your feet, you can spend less time worrying and more time enjoying the world around you.
